The current position offers me opportunities to challenge myself every day. This alone is enough for me to get up each morning and get going. Since the challenges come in varying degrees, the role offers me continuous learning almost on the job. It is hard to choose the learning courses randomly unless for a purpose and my role serves me with such a purpose. Going beyond personal job satisfaction, my role gives me continuous motivation to develop members of my team. It is a rewarding experience to coach talented individuals and encourage them to develop in their roles or beyond. Our customers are the greatest motivation. They generate ideas for us in the form of expectations and help us innovate. When we make them smile after delivering their much-loved product, it gives me and the team a great sense of accomplishment.

I have always enjoyed teaching others in one or the other way in different circumstances. This is partly because sharing the knowledge with others perfects my own learning and also gives me a sense of pride. I do this in several ways to fit the situation. While coaching is not the main part of my role, I have always believed that it is an essential quality of a leader. They build trust and create a sense of belonging. I also take opportunities and volunteer in mentorship activities. One of the examples of my volunteering is being a Code Club mentor at a Primary School. It gives me immense joy to watch children imagine big. Any act of volunteering fills me with happiness and more energy to engage at work.
